Rise of Nongmen

"The business here is over, are you going back to Shanyuguan with me?" That night, Xiao Jinyan opened the door curtain and entered the room with a cold air, and asked before taking off his coat.

Ye Chen thought for a while and said, "Go back to Beihuang, I've been out long enough."

"That's it, I've asked someone to prepare a gift for my aunt and the others, don't forget to bring it before you leave." Xiao Jinyan said without saying anything to keep her.

"Aren't you trying to keep me?" Ye Chen put on a wounded look, looking at how wronged he would be.

Xiao Jinyan felt a chill, turned her eyes away, and didn't want to talk to this brazen person.

Ye Chen didn't think it was a big deal at all. If the mountain doesn't come, I'll go to the mountain. Seeing that Xiao Jinyan ignored him, he stepped forward, hugging Xiao Jinyan's tight waist without a trace of fat from behind, and buried his head in the The other party's neck was eager to try, "I'm going, how about a farewell carnival tonight?"

Xiao Jinyan has black lines on his face, can he say no?Looking at Ye Chen's posture, he couldn't resist, so Xiao Jinyan had no choice but to risk his life to accompany the gentleman. Anyway, aside from the initial period, he also enjoyed it.

Two days later, except for the garrison troops, the rest of the Zhenbei Army set off.

Ye Chen and Xiao Jinyan marched together with the cavalry, and parted ways at a fork in the road. Ye Chen went to Zhenbei Fucheng, and Xiao Jinyan went straight to Shanyuguan.

Affected by Yuanyu mines in various places, the price of jade has been falling continuously, and it has reached the same level as the original price. It is estimated that if this trend continues, the price will continue to drop.

However, Zhenbao Pavilion has not been affected much. Its biggest business is yuan jade exchange for jade, which is not linked to silver.If you really want to calculate it, the price reduction of jade will also promote the business of exchanging jade in Zhenbao Pavilion. After all, the lower the price of jade, the more people who can afford it, and the customer base for Zhenbao Pavilion will expand accordingly, so the business will naturally A rising tide lifts all boats.

After resting in the Qing'an Hou Mansion for one night, Ye Chen came to the warehouse the next day, exchanged the jade recently received by Zhenbao Pavilion for Yuanyu, and left later in Liuyan.

Not long after leaving the city, the sky began to snow.

This is the first snowfall since the beginning of winter this year. This snowfall came later than in previous years, but the temperature is not necessarily high. The wind is as cold as a knife. Ye Chen is still unable to avoid the cold and heat, but he is a monk after all. It is more cold-resistant than ordinary people, and it didn't take long to adapt to running in the wind and snow.

Previously, Liuyan was only fast, strong and durable, and did not have any other special performances. Even after absorbing a few Lu Xing Beast King Stones, his ability to jump and stay in the air has improved by leaps and bounds.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the snow began to float, Ye Chen noticed something was wrong with it, excited, extremely excited, at first he was worried that it would be affected by the beast king stone, but after a closer look, he found that this was not the case , Liuyan is sane.

Ye Chen was thoughtful, eight out of ten it was because the Beast King Stone continued to take effect, and it had a positive effect. Liuyan's excitement was probably inspired by the wind and snow.

While thinking about it, Ye Chen suddenly felt the heat under his feet, and then he flew into the air, flying higher and higher, and the ground shrank rapidly. Before he had time to appreciate the scene in the sky, he was disturbed by the high temperature that was about to roast people.

Fortunately, Ye Chen reacted quickly, and the moment he felt the heat, he immediately spread the water energy around his body, otherwise he would really be scorched.He was about to yell a few words, when he saw Liu Yan turned his head to the side, looking at him with big black eyes begging for praise, he couldn't help but soften his voice: "Go down."

Liuyan was not happy and ignored him.

"Hey, land on the ground." Ye Chen was patient, but he patted Liu Yan on the shoulder with a little more force.

Liuyan sensed Ye Chen's hint of displeasure, and immediately stopped making trouble, and went down as she came up.

As soon as he landed, Ye Chen jumped off his horse, at least one foot away from Liuyan, away from the range of high temperature invasion, so he had the heart to look at the other party.

I don't know when, Liuyan stepped on the fire cloud, just one of each of the four hooves, and the heat came from there. The current temperature is not very high, only more than [-] degrees, but it is enough to burn a beginner monk, let alone an ordinary monk. People, but it will not hurt itself at all, Ye Chen is not blind, he clearly sees that Liu Yan enjoys it very much.

As for how Ye Chen judged the temperature of the cloud formed by the flames, it was because he was lucky enough to experience it himself. Even though it was only for a moment, the taste was enough for him.

Seeing that Ye Chen hadn't moved for a while, Liu Yan ran forward to claim credit, the heat hit again, Ye Chen retreated subconsciously, and Liu Yan followed up again... In this cycle, Ye Chen hurriedly said to stop: "Stand there, don't move. "

Liuyan tilted her head, her eyes full of grievances.

Ye Chen looked helpless, so he had no choice but to say: "Put away that thing on your feet first."

Liuyan turned her head away, refusing.That's a newly learned skill, it hasn't shown off enough yet, how can it accept it?

Ye Chen lowered his face: "Take it."

"Yuh!" Liu Yan protested, but in the end she was still dejected, and obediently put away the four gorgeous fire clouds on her feet.

"Okay, why are you being wronged? Look, I'm almost roasted. When you can control Huoyun, you can use it however you want." Ye Chen stepped forward and patted Liu Yan, drooping. big head, promised.

Liuyan's wounded heart was immediately soothed.

Since swallowing a few pieces of Lu Xing Beast King Stone, Liuyan has become more and more intelligent, and now his intelligence is equivalent to that of a ten-year-old child. As long as it is not too profound, it can basically understand words, and communication is much easier than before.

Ye Chen pointed to its feet, and then read the word "fire cloud", it immediately understood, and reluctantly put away the warm fireball that allowed it to wander in the air.

Looking at the place where Liuyan passed, there was no grass growing, and even the ground was a shade darker than the surrounding area. Ye Chen really didn't dare to let it move freely. He originally planned to go to the Xu Mansion in Jinmin County first. I had no choice but to give up temporarily and head straight to the Northern Wilderness.

Once at the entrance, Ye Chen dismounted and began to guide Liuyan to learn how to control Xinhui's ability.

One taught carefully, and the other studied hard, but the results were not satisfactory. Liu Yan could not send and receive freely. Of course, this did not refer to Huoyun releasing and withdrawing. There was no need to learn this point at all. Refers to temperature control.

Ye Chen let Liuyan roam around in the desert stepping on the fire clouds, and occasionally flew into the sky, while he fell into deep thought.

Liuyan is becoming more and more spiritual beasts, and he should be able to obtain blood inheritance. Unlike human cultivation, Ye Chen may not be able to help him in cultivation. At most, he can supply enough spiritual objects. He should be able to give pointers on the general direction of ability utilization one two.

It's just that there is a gap between them. Ye Chen doesn't know how Liuyan uses his abilities. The only thing he can be sure of is that it must be different from the human cultivation system.

It is precisely because of this deviation that Liu Yan, after understanding his intentions, still fails to meet the requirements. No matter how he adjusts it, the temperature of the fire cloud cannot be completely restrained, and there will always be heat dispersing into the air, which is very cold in winter. It's easy to use, especially in the northern wilderness in summer...

Ye Chen still doesn't want to be roasted into charcoal, this problem must be solved.

Suddenly, the image of one person and one horse cooperating to get rid of Lu Xing's beast king stone's negative substances flashed through Ye Chen's mind, and he couldn't help thinking that this method might be feasible, so he did it when he thought of it.

After Liu Yan finished having fun, Ye Chen called it to his eyes, explained a few words, and after making sure it understood, he integrated his soul power into Liu Yan's body in the most primitive form without attacking power.

Liuyan has long been used to this, and she doesn't resist Ye Chen's soul power scattered into its body. It does what Ye Chen tells it to do, and the cooperation between one person and one horse is incomparable.

As soon as the fire cloud came out, Ye Chen's soul power entered the four hooves following the direction of flowing flame vitality, and then attached to the fire cloud. It didn't take long for him to understand the general principle.

After withdrawing his soul power, Ye Chen began to give targeted guidance.

Originally, no matter how you control it, there will be omissions. After changing the method, Liuyan really moves freely. Not only is the temperature problem solved satisfactorily, it also stimulates additional functions. Anything is fine, as long as it is within the range of Liuyan's ability, even a mountain-sized cloud of fire will do.

Liu Yan was so happy, the fire cloud under his feet changed its appearance all the time, and he was having so much fun that he even forgot about Ye Chen who was standing beside him, just like a child who got a new toy, he got carried away.

Ye Chen didn't care about these, anyway, with Liu Yan's current speed, it would be no problem to get to the manor before nightfall, he would play whenever he liked, just treat it as a way to let him out.The problem is that this is the entrance to the Northern Wilderness, and the outpost he established is not far away. As soon as they entered, they might have fallen into the eyes of the guards. If he hadn't sent out the signal in advance, they would have sent people over there to check it out. Forget it, he doesn't want to be surrounded by people for a long time.

Therefore, as soon as Liu Yan's interest diminished a little, Ye Chen rode his horse straight to the manor.

This time Ye Chen didn't restrict Liu Yan, it doesn't matter if it likes to run on the ground or fly in the air, it can do whatever it likes.

Unknowingly, the eyes of the outpost were all shocked, and the guards at the outpost looked at Liu Yan, who sometimes landed, sometimes flew, and sometimes stood in the air, dumbfounded.Many people were rubbing their eyes vigorously, thinking that they were hallucinating, but no matter how much they rubbed, the picture in their eyes did not change.

When the fiery red figure turned into a small black dot and disappeared from everyone's sight, the guards came back to their senses. While feeling incredible, their eyes were full of pride.

When the Ye family is well, their value will also increase accordingly, and there is no one who does not wish for a better life.

Liuyan is a child at first, and he likes to show off whenever he has something good, but now he has a new skill, and it is extremely cool, and Ye Chen is not restrained, how could it not take the opportunity to show off?

No, on the way, Liuyan flew into the sky and swooped down to the ground, stopping to adapt to the new ability, never letting his feet touch the ground when he got close to the farm, and kept flying over crowded places, and when he got close to the manor, It was so frustrating, in order to attract everyone's attention, instead of passing through the gate, it passed directly over the wall, and received countless exclamations along the way.

After putting Ye Chen down at the place, Liuyan obviously still hadn't finished his mind. Helplessness flashed in Ye Chen's eyes, but he didn't stop him. He took off the rein and let it move freely: "Go, remember not to hurt anyone."

"Yu!" Liuyan yelled joyfully, and ran away.

After hearing the news, there were only a few children in the Ye family who immediately left Ye Chen behind and ran after Liu Yan, leaving behind a thousand and a half teenagers looking at them enviously, including a few adults.

"Xiao Chen, Liu Yan is amazing again." Ye You pretended to be reserved, with a rising tone, and the eyes that glanced at Liu Yan from time to time revealed that he also wanted to get in touch with Liu Yan at a close distance.

"Go if you want." Ye Wu on the side couldn't see it. He was almost in his thirties, and he still had a lot of fun like a child. Don't open your eyes if you have something novel, and want to have fun with it, but whoever said it was his little brother, even if I can only admit that I will never grow up. Fortunately, it is not a bad habit. If I can satisfy him, I should try my best to satisfy him.

Scanning around, I found that the teenage girls and boys in the family all looked like Ye You. I was embarrassed to want to go, so Ye Wu decided to be a good person and do it to the end: "If you have something important to do, hurry up, and if you have nothing to do, follow me See what new abilities Liuyan has grown."

Headed by Ye You, the adults and teenagers' eyes lit up instantly, and they leaned over.

The rest of the people couldn't help shaking their heads, not without envy.It's better to be young. At their age, they don't have much curiosity about the outside world, and they don't do anything like they did when they encountered a little novelty when they were young, and they felt happy like something.

"Xiaochen, how about Zhenbei Mansion?" Ye Ningren asked as the bustle subsided and everyone retreated.

"The problem has been solved, but the loss is a bit serious."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but tighten their hearts, and all the smiles on their faces froze.Zhenbei Mansion is good, they don't have much feeling here, it's not good, it can be affected every minute.

After such a long time, no one in the Ye family knows that Xiao Jinyan has contributed a lot to their peaceful life. Even though he seldom appears, the forces of the Xiao family are protecting them.I dare not say that without the Xiao family, they would be just like that. After all, Ye Chen is there, but they can't be sure about the fact that they are not as comfortable as they are now.

Seeing that everyone was a little scared, Ye Chen added: "It's not hurt, just take it easy."

Everyone in the Ye family could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, this is good, this is good.

Entering the lobby, Ye Chen asked about the latest developments in the manor, Ye Ningren and others explained in detail one by one, and soon, Ye Chen got the general idea.So far, five people have entered the trial tower one after another, and after a while, all seven people will be selected for the trial.

As Ye Chen mentioned, the per capita gain is much higher than that of the first batch of practitioners. Not to mention how big the gain is, at least one person has at least one copy of exercises that are suitable for them, and they only choose secret skills that have been carefully considered for a long time. Like the first batch of trainees, many of them only got the test tower and finally got the rotten street exercises.

The condition of the farm is also very good, and the Five Elements Yuanli monk is a credit for this.Cultivators of earth element force can help plow and build houses, and monks of water element force have obvious effects on irrigation, not to mention, monks of wood element force can directly improve the vitality of plants and trees, reduce the death rate, and at the same time promote growth, which can be called planting. Little expert.

It's a pity that the cultivation time is too short and the cultivation level is insufficient. The effect that the Five Elements Yuanli monks can play is limited at present. If they want to truly develop on a large scale, they may have to wait until later.

Ye Chen listened quietly, quite satisfied with this, and finally said: "Uncle, how many people in the village have learned the art of cloud and rain?"

"23 people."

"So many?" Even Ye Chen was shocked now.The Cloud and Rain Jue is a kind of technique. It does not require much talent. It is true that as long as there is wood energy in the body, it can be practiced, but it is one thing to be able to learn it, and another thing to be able to learn it...

Ye Ningren hesitated to speak, and said for a while, "Xiaochen, I can't say anything about this, just come and have a look."

Ye Chen followed with doubts on his face, and when he arrived at the place, he couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth after seeing the demonstration. No wonder Ye Ningren was ashamed to speak, so it was.

Why do you think, because of the 23 people who have learned the Cloud and Rain Jue, except for a few, the rest really only know it. When the Cloud and Rain Jue is released, a few drops of green rain will fall from the sky, not to mention moistening a piece of land, even taking care of half of the land No, still can't take care of that kind, only scope, lack of strength.

Ye Chen was not good at hitting these people, so he said a few words of encouragement and left in a hurry.If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would throw out a cloud and rain formula with itchy hands for a while, which would hit his body badly, so how could he keep them happy and continue to practice hard?

Ye Chen will not ignore the hard work of the people below just because he stands on a high place.Sometimes talent is important, but hard work and perseverance are also indispensable. Such people may not be able to reach the top level, but it is not impossible to live a wealthy life. No, it should be said that there is great hope if they work hard. Farmers have a greater chance of success.

So many people have learned the Yunyu Jue, not because everyone's contribution is enough to get the qualification to learn the Yunyu Jue, but because Ye Chen set the conditions for the practice of the Yunyu Jue very low based on the long-term development of the farm. Among all the open exercises, It is the easiest to learn, and the effect is also very significant. Even if most people do not even reach the passing line, it also makes the farm a big step forward.

In comparison, other Yuanli monks are much weaker. It is not that the rest of Yuanli is not as good as Mu Yuanli. The problem lies in the quantity. Ye Chen does not have the cultivation method of Earth Yuanli in his hands. Ye Ningren five Not long after the trial, Ye Chen was not around, so he didn't put the newly acquired exercises into the public treasury for the time being.

In other words, except for Ye Ningren and the other five, no one was lucky enough to learn it. However, seeing how relaxed Ye Ningren and others were digging the soil and watering it, those with corresponding talents were envious.With the ready-made examples of Mu Yuanli talents as a reference, they usually work harder, but anyone who is motivated wants to earn enough contribution as soon as possible, and rush to learn the exercises as soon as they are available.

For everyone's positive attitude, Ye Chen naturally wants to encourage them. Although he has seen the previous scenes where only a few drops of wood energy rain fell, and does not expect much from the rest, he should have an attitude.

Ye Chen is committed to developing high-end combat power, and he doesn't have high requirements for others, as long as he can give full play to the potential of everyone, there is no need for them to fill the scene.It just so happened that the green japonica rice had been harvested. Originally, he planned to keep it for his family, but now that he had better green japonica, he distributed it as a reward.

That night, everyone in the manor was given a bowl of porridge cooked with Japonica rice.The unique fragrance that contains vitality lasts for a long time before dissipating. People who have never eaten it are still full of taste.

After that, there was an additional shop in the manor, and there were not many goods. Currently, there were only Japonica rice and a small amount of Yuanyu on the shelves. Silver taels were useless in this shop and could only be purchased with contribution points.

Ye Chen does not plan to open the exchange business of the contribution of the bank and the contribution, and sometimes only provides the exchange between the yuan jade and the contribution, and the silver is not considered, so as not to affect the supply and demand balance of the manor's materials.

After all, the Ye family's family background is too shallow, and necessary precautionary measures must be taken, even if it may sacrifice some interests, Ye Chen will not hesitate.

After learning about the recent situation of the manor, Ye Chen launched a series of new measures accordingly. After a few days of rest, he left Beihuang again for Jinmin County.

The Xu family in Dongfu.

The concierge saw that Ye Chen, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, came to visit. He hurriedly greeted him enthusiastically, and said apologetically, "Young master Ye, I'm afraid you will have to make a trip for nothing today. The eldest and young master are away. You can only return to the residence after three to five days."

"Well, then I'll come back in a few days." It's not the first time Ye Chen has gone empty, but it's the first time that he happened to meet Xu Yanqing on a long trip. Thinking of the messenger talisman that he hadn't had time to send out, he couldn't help laughing, this is really an unfortunate coincidence , just in time for this moment.

"Young Master Ye, you won't go in for a meeting? If it's not an important matter, the old man and the others should be able to handle it."

"No, I'm not prepared this time. I'll visit your old man next time." Ye Chen thanked the porter for his kindness, stepped down the steps and got on his horse. He didn't want to be flamboyant and mischievous, and flew across the city.

The concierge, who had watched one person and one horse go away, couldn't help being dumbfounded when he saw it, his mouth was wide open, his eyes were wide open, full of disbelief, it took him a long time to recover, and he immediately returned to the house to report.

Xu's concierge's reaction was not bad, and there were even more exaggerated performances. The tea bowl fell to the ground, the vegetables and fruits were smashed, and accompanied by bursts of exclamations, the streets and alleys were in an uproar for a while, very lively.

Liu Yan was amused by the crowd's reaction, and became more excited. He was about to go up to several feet, but he couldn't help but become more playful. The customers didn't even pick the goods, they looked around one by one, the hawkers and shopkeepers were also attracted by the flying flames, and the flow of people kept gathering towards the place where the flames passed.

Seeing that an accident was about to happen due to the crowd being too dense, Ye Chen no longer allowed Liu Yan to frolick in public, and found an empty street to land.

Liu Yan didn't enjoy himself to the fullest, but he also knew what was good or bad. It happened that the passers-by here were attracted to other places, and they ran with all four hooves. They didn't slow down until the crowd gradually became thicker, but it was still very eye-catching, not only because of it The appearance of Shenjun is more blessed by the flying action just now.

In the past, Ye Chen would try his best to avoid this kind of situation, but now there is no need for it. This is also the biggest reason why Ye Chen didn't stop Liu Yan's nonsense immediately.

I believe that with today's incident, coupled with the understanding of Ye Chen in the past, Jinmin County will be very peaceful, not to mention provoking Ye's family, even the disputes in Jinmin County will be much less.

At this moment, Ye Chen explained to everyone in Jinmin County what deterrence by strength is.In order to strengthen this effect, he even let Liuyan give up controlling the temperature of the fire cloud, so that wherever the Liuyan passed, it would be accompanied by waves of heat.
